OXYMORON "The Best CHEAP Tires For Toad?

It's light. I drive like an 80-year old grandma. I perform armed robbery on my piggy bank regularly. I don't need much - just the impossible. Long wearing 195X70X14" toad tires for less than 65 USA dollars each mounted and balanced, tax, the works.

The pair of high-class Douglas brand tires I got at Wally-Mart surely are not the best I can do here are they? 90,000 mile treadlife warranty Michelins are 104 dollars plus 15 dollars then 8% sales tax. Maybe a hundred thirty a pop. Beyond reach.

Tire prices down here are totally insane.
  • I love it...

    Walk into a tire store and they sock a customer fifteen dollars a tire California tire disposal fee, even though I intend to take the tires out of the country to be mounted. Fifteen dollars a tire? Not one freakin' cent of that fee is used to dispose of tires. It all goes into the general fund. They should grind the tires up into powder and use it as an additive to roadway slurry coatings. Give it away as the fifteen dollars would certainly pay for the process and transport.

    Oh wait. Can't do that! That would make "sense", and "sense" is toxic to government.

    Grobble...grobble...grobble...
  • I always go to Discount Tire and get the best deal and service.
  • Been a while since you bought tires ?? Those prices are dirt cheap compared to U.S. pricing.
